  • In this video, we solve a problem that seems simple at first glance, but for many students the problem is a challenge. What is the probability you draw a four-of-a-kind when choosing five cards from a deck of 52 cards (for example: 4 kings and the 3 of hearts is a four-of-a-kind hand)?

      It’s not an easy problem, so it’s normal to find it a challenge.

    Very well explained. thinking through the problem is excellent. The explanation of the last choice of 48 possibilities in both ways is great.

    How can I calculate the probability of getting 4 kings when choosing 13 cards?

    • @dmcguckian
      @dmcguckian  3 года назад +1

      Assuming order doesn’t matter, it should be (4C4)*(48C9)/(52C13)

    • @dmcguckian
      @dmcguckian  3 года назад +1

      In case your calc freezes up, this should reduce to 13*12*11*10/(52*51*50*49) double check this though bc right now I don’t have a proper pencil and paper

      @@Megaheropap think about the fact that the 4 kings is a special case of the four of a kind (if we were choosing 5 cards). There would be 13 of these hands. That’s how you get from four kings to a generic four of a kind

    I'm having a hard time finding out the probability for the following:
    suited cards: A-K-Q-J
    This would be out of 7 cards to play, from a normal 52 card deck.
    As well as any 4 card straight flush with 7 cards, from a 52 card deck.
    Would it be:
    (4|1)(52|4)(48|1)(47|1)(46|1) / 52C7
    ?

    • @dmcguckian
      @dmcguckian  2 года назад +1

      Just off the top of my head, I would say there are 4 ways to get A,K,Q,J of the same suite. Then you need to pick the remaining three cards carefully because if you want the other cards to not create a hand, you need to avoid selecting any 10s. You need to avoid any cards of the same suite. You need to avoid any pairs, so no A, K, Q, J, and no match among the cards you select that are not 10s, As, Ks, Qs, Js. Once you carefully construct the list of acceptable options the rest should follow easily.

    • @dmcguckian
      @dmcguckian  2 года назад

      Yes, this is the calculation for the probability of randomly selecting 5 cards from a shuffled deck and choosing a four of a kind. This is not that same as the probability of getting four of a kind in the normal play of a game of poker because you get to swap out cards even in a single hand of poker, let alone in a full game with several hands.
